I'm new to the iPad, but not to Apple. As i transitioned to digital, i ended all my magazine subscriptions. The primary reason I purchased the iPad is magazines. The thing about the iPad that I find confusing is newsstand. Is there a better way to search it? Does anyone know of any great mags out there? I already subscribe to the New Yorker and Reader's Digest (which I'm disappointed in, because they don't do landscape). Any others you might recommend?

Hi Wisdom...I don't use newsstand, however, one of our long term members, KayKayKay-suggested to try the actual newspaper site to see if they carry an app for their magazine. Having read a few comments when Newstand was first released-it had a lot of issues with use. I have not tried it to assess myself to give your further info.

Thanks for looking out! I did see and will peruse the app section. While its not like the hundreds of thousands of apps that re available for he iPad, there are over two thousand titles available in newsstand, I like the apps they are not broken down in any way that makes sense, like by interest. The New Yorker does a bang up job of what an iPad mag could be, like listening to the poets read their work, I'm almost convinced if not at least hopeful that there are other good mags out there as well. Maybe 'Newstand' merits it's own section?
